M-1’s Joost Raimond also said that 6 million Russians tuned in to watch Fedor fight and claimed the numbers were good in other countries as well. I don’t know what that means for their bottom line, but that’s another revenue stream they wouldn’t have if Fedor signed with the UFC.

UFC was seen by 25 million in Mexico… the debut of UFC unleashed did 18 million in Mexico.

Russian TV pays shit for programming. All the slavic fighters fight in Germany for a reason…

There’s a reason why klitschko’s fight in Germany and Russia has no marquee sports programming. There’s no money.

I dont recall anyone asking what the UFC numbers in Mexico were. MUST you come to every SF post and post this stuff? You rag on Supremacy but the dude acts way more mature than you.

Bitch Please…

there was a comment here asking if this was the most watched MMA card…

I have no idea where that comment disappeared to but I guess Nick Thomas removed his post for some reason and that comment was attached to it.

But as we can see it’s not even close in terms of the most watched MMA card. Go cry somewhere else.

Fedor and his brittle hands. He worries me.

for all intents and purposes, just consider all my posts as works of satire.

i’ll take brittle hands with enormous KO power to hard hands with puny power (cain velasquez)

Brittle? He just hit a 280 lb monster in the head as hard as he could multiple times and is only out for 4-6 weeks. 33 fights in, its a little late to be worried.

I think Fedor has a history of breaking his hand, which may be what Bandaka is referring to.

It would just suck to see Fedor have to hang up his MMA gloves becuase he broke his hands so many times that if he continues to fight and continues to break them, he will need assistance in his old age to even hold a spoon or fork to his mouth. Very possible. Look at Pretty Boy Floyd, he has very brittle hands from all the boxing. MMA fighters have thoose tiny gloves so I would assume the damage to your hands is even worse (depending on your fighting style). They need to implement thicker gloves to protect the fighters hands.

for all intents and purposes, just consider all my posts as works of satire.
